Firstly, Ron's been very responsive and helpful to me on multiple occasions, so, even if there is a more concise answer, here, I welcome and appreciate all his support.
Regarding your comment on changing Google settings, I am not sure this would achieve what I wanted, but you may correct me if I am wrong. It was merely my desire to have landline calls arrive at my Google phone, complete with their origianl incoming caller ID's, and either be answered by me on Google or find their way into Google voicemail, if unanswered.
Even with your suggestion, I am assuming that since Obi is bridging by using Google Voice to make the transfer, then, Google Voice would see it's own caller ID, not the outside, even if voicemail access was turned off. Yes?
In the end, I think this entire problem is going to be obviated because I am going to utilize
voip.ms for main communications, pricipally because I, and my callees, have found the obi-outward voice quality of Google Voice to be substandard. I can hear them all perfectly, but they hear me a bit choppily. I think this problem is likely to be extinguished with voip,ms. (We'll see.)
Thanks again.
